Hannah is amazing. She was recommended to me by one of my good friends who happens to be one of her other patients, and it's been a great fit. I feel like I've made substantial progress. I started talking with Hannah after a family crisis, and after that experience, decided that speaking with her twice a month, indefinitely, was a good idea. She's helped me process some issues that have lingered over me for years. Thriveworks makes it easy to keep the consistency. I can usually find an excuse to not drive across town and sit in an office. It's much harder to find an excuse not to take two hours a month to work on my mental health over zoom. For the first time since I started counseling over a decade ago, I've worked with the same person consistently enough to almost make it through my entire back story.

Hannah is very easy to talk to and does a good job summing up what I've shared and how I'm feeling in a way that feels heard and also helps me clearly grasp how I'm doing.

Thriveworks makes it so easy and convenient for me to be able to participate in talk therapy. With someone who has a very complicated work schedule and a busy lifestyle I never would've started therapy if it had not been for thriveworks openness, and flexibility. Also, my counselor must have been handpicked for me by God himself. She is very knowledgeable and very understanding of my issues!
